Percutaneous Transcatheter Balloon Valvuloplasty for Bioprosthetic Tricuspid Valve Stenosis in a Patient with Adult Congenital Heart Disease: A Case Report
Abstract:A 38-year-old male with previous surgeries for an incomplete atrioventricular septal defect successfully underwent percutaneous transcatheter tricuspid balloon valvuloplasty for a deteriorated bioprosthetic valve. Our case highlights the imperative of considering catheter-based minimally invasive therapy for the increasing number of adults with congenital heart disease who may present multiple risks factors for surgery.
